On September 11, 2001, our world changed forever. It is a day that we will NEVER FORGET those Heroes that ran in so that others could run out.

Each year at MISSION BBQ, we make September 11 a very special day. It is our privilege to Honor and Support Our Hometown Heroes. As a small gesture of appreciation, all Firefighters,
First Responders, and Police Officers are served a Free Sandwich.

At noon, we will have a live version of the National Anthem and we will thank all our local Firefighters, First Responders, and Police Officers in attendance for what they do for Our Communities.

It would be our privilege to serve you, and we hope to see you on FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 11, 2026, MARK YOUR CALENDARS.

Proudly Serving Those Who Serve
